Print Quality

Hello guys,
I am new in 3D printing an i have some problems.
I hope you could help me.

I try to print that vase:
https://www.google.at/search?q=spiral+vase&client=firefox-b-ab&dcr=0&tbm=isch&source=iu&ictx=1&fir=QqYxF-RcFA-C4M%253A%252C8X5Zhq57bHdr9M%252C_&usg=__QTzofJ1hReOBiLkb-z0AeolC61A%3D&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwinp7L0-araAhXI66QKHUMNAogQ9QEIKzAB#imgrc=QqYxF-RcFA-C4M :

I am Printing PLA First layer 210° the rest 205°.
Regarding the foto in the attachment could you say me how to increase the print quality?

The second problem is that after aproximate 20 min of printing the extruder makes click noises and do not deliver the filament.
Could that be because of the temperatures of the extruder motor?

Thank you in advance!

Print hotter. 230 degrees. No joke. (also 75% speed)
Less extruder clicking, less clogs and smoother layer lines.

Thank you for your awnser!

I tried it with 230 degree and it is not really better!

Du you have other ideas? I would not use suport material because this is a vase.

You could increase Vertical shells - Perimeters it looks like when it is filling in the gap it is pushing your perimeter around, You also could slow down your Solid infill speed.

Or you could try using vase mode and change the extrusion width to say 1.0mm
